183 The Truth (1/2)

”You are not lying... You really kissed my man.”

Dongmei pointed out, looking at Katherine with complicated gaze. She knew when someone was lying or not. Katherine was honest the whole time.

”Yes, I did. I just felt like kissing him at that particular moment so I did,” Katherine agreed, not showing any remorse after her act. ”I thought you will immediately get angry at me but you are surprisingly calm.”

”Oh, I'm not calm. I really want to slap you right now but I'm holding myself back.” Dongmei replied, displaying a fake smile.

Which women who respects herself wouldn't be mad when another woman flirts with her man? Even though Katherine was a friend, it didn't give her the right to do so.

”I know that hitting an instructor can resolve in kicking out of the camp so I'm not going to do it for our sake,” Dongmei added, staring coldly at Katherine.

Since she met Wuxing, her character was constantly changing, turning much softer as she was simply happy. Being with Wuxing unfroze her heart and she was rarely cold or mean to others.

It turned out to be a mistake on her side.

By showing more kindness to others, she lowered her guard, allowing Katherine to strike and try to steal her man. The happy and playful Dongmei got instantly replaced by dominant Dongmei, one that everyone was scared of in the prison.

It seemed like she couldn't simply enjoy her life else people will step on her.

”You want to slap me?” Katherine asked, not acting really surprised, ”If that can help to appease your anger then I will happily accommodate you. I promise I won't hold grudges for that.”

”Are you trying to seek forgiveness to what you did? I'm sorry but that's not how it works,” Dongmei didn't buy any of that, seeing right through Katherine's motives. ”I thought we were friends yet you try to ruin our relationship. What do you even want to achieve with that?”

”I never planned to ruin your relationship—” Katherine tried to explained but Dongmei cut her off, scolding sternly, ”But that's exactly what you are doing. Do you think your actions will have no impact on us? Did you even think about the consequences?”

Because of getting emotional, Dongmei didn't keep her voice down. Anna's assistant looked at them when he heard her questioning, causing Katherine to frown.

Katherine turned around and walked away, calling out, ”Follow me if you want to resolve this.”

Dongmei wasn't scared of confrontation so she didn't mind to follow, knowing Katherine wanted to avoid making it public. Dongmei walked after her but then stopped to look back at Wuxing.

Just as she thought, he was staring in their direction, his face confused. If she was on his place, she would also be troubled when your future wife was taking with a friend that just assaulted you. It seemed as if they were going away to settle it with a fight which made Wuxing worried.

She forced a smile and waved at him to show she was alright before finally walking away after Katherine. She wanted to watch Wuxing's challenge but her matter at hand was much more important to her.

Her healthy relationship with Wuying was her first priority.

”So? I still didn't hear your explanation,” Dongmei questioned after they walked some far away, far from other people's ears. ”Your answer of, 'I felt like kissing him so I did,' doesn't satisfy me.”

Dongmei's situation wasn't exactly pleasant. If it was anyone else, she would simply ban her from her life to avoid unnecessary trouble but it was Katherine.

She definitely wasn't someone easy to deal with so Dongmei had to approach the matter cautiously.

”Alright, I will tell you the truth,” Katherine finally spoke, looking into her eyes. ”I think I like him.”

”So just because you like him, you decided to steal him from me?” Dongmei questioned back but Katherine denied right away. ”I never planned on stealing him away from you. Why would I do that? He seems really happy with you.”

”Then what exactly do you want?” Dongmei asked directly, wrapping her arms under her chest.

The only reason she didn't explode yet was because Katherine still didn't say even one lie so she gave her chance to explain.
